Considering the fact that Joni Mitchell has been at a couple of 3121 parties..and the fact that Joni Mitchell has been a musical inspiration to Prince..what do you think a Prince/Joni Mitchell collaboration would be like?

i dunno know how it would look like- but it should sound like "Wendy & Lisa" in 1987.

I think it's long overdue

The Ballad of Dorothy Parker. Or Coyote.

joni, stevie and prince have been hanging out a lot, i've noticed...how hot would it be if they were all over his next album? even if the results were less than stellar, the idea of a prince album with lots of stevie and joni input would be just plain

if I could pick one song to take out from the vault, it would be Emotional Pump.

Yeah baby!

It sure beats Larry Graham!!

Anxiety said:

That would be cool. Even cooler is if all 3 were on each of each others upcoming albums...just a little piece in time and history and music making. Not sure why P doesn't work with more of his "class" as it seems that when he works with the younger generation crap comes out (though a collab between P and Andre I think would actually be good for both of them)

MrSquiggle said:

Could you describe that song. Never heard of it. Is that an old collab bet P and Stevie?

it's a song prince wrote for joni and she turned down.

Prince & Joni

Anxiety said:

He never released it in any form and it never made it onto a bootleg.
All we know is that according to Joni it goes You are my emotional pump/You make my body jump

i dont think they should sing together.
One should play guitar for the other.

two heroes !

i love how joni effortlessly flows through Seal's "If I Could"....


id love to hear her sing back up on a prince track.....

The thought of Joni hangin' out on Prince's couch is almost too much for me...damn,someone call an ambulance!!!

I hope some off her colour rubs off into Prince's music again.

although i love Prince's 1/2 cover of Joni's 'A Case of You', I really wish that he had sung the whole thing. The lyrics are so personal. A wonderful version by Prince, made even more beautiful since he is talking about his father. I love that song more for another reason, it proves to me that Prince is willing to allow 'the words of another' speak for him. Especially such a personal matter like the dedication to JOhn L.

I agree! I think it's a fantastic idea.

Even my mom, who is a huge Joni fan, but only sort of likes a song or two by Prince thinks it's a good idea to put those two together in a studio.
